Bean Corn Salad Recipes

A yummy low fat, high protein side dish

This salad is always a hit at parties! Use as a fiber-rich dip, or eat it by itself.

This is a great salad for a summer potluck or cookout. Proteins from the beans and quinoa also make this a bright summer lunch.

Zinc Cafe in Corona del Mar serves a similar salad: Delicioso!

"The Girls" love me when I bring this to get-togethers :-)

Black Beans, Garbanzo Beans, Corn, and diced Veggies mixed with sweet & sour dressing. High in carbohydrates, fiber, and protein.

This is my basic pantry salad, great for the winter when fresh veggies are scarce. In the summer great with fresh veggies from the market

Be sure to thoroughly rinse the black beans as well as the corn before adding to the other ingredients. This dish is great as a garnish or a dip for tortilla or corn chips.

A very pretty, tasty and lovely to look at salad.

A very yummy salad on its own or very delish served over hot rice

A zesty and very hearty salad that can be served many different ways. Especially good on a bed of mixed Romaine and Spinach.

Wisk together lime juice, olive oil, garlic, chili powder,cumin,cayenne,sea salt.
Drain and rinse black beans and corn and pour into a bowl.
Chop pepper and onions and add to bowl.
Pour dressing and mix.
add

My version; this could have used more cumin and maybe a dash of cayanne pepper. Low fat/low sodium

Best salad ever!

Easy way to eat veggies
Great for Lunch!
Add lean meat on top make it dinner!

A wonderful recipe. It gets better the longer it sits. I use a combination of red, green and yellow peppers, about 1/3 of each and the salad just pops with color. If you only use one color, I'd go with red.

This is a great salad served inside a whole-wheat pita with lettuce, salsa and a wedge of avocado. Great with tortilla scoops to serve as an appetizer.

This is a recipe that will blow you away! Even people who do not appreciate this sort of thing (like myself) will love it. I made all my beans from dried, but you can use canned if you are not concerned about corn derivatives. Just be sure to rinse and drain them! The original recipe called for 1 1/2 C cooked corn instead of chick peas, but I changed it to make the recipe corn and gluten free. You can always experiment with other types of beans. The friend who gave me this recipe put pinto beans in hers.

*****NOTE***** If you want to be sure that this recipe is also corn safe, you must:

1) use a high quality red wine vinegar -- check the label or call the manufacturer!
2) cook your own beans (or use a canned product that lists beans as its sole ingredient!)
3) use real lime juice that you squeeze from the fruit!
4) use non-iodized salt!
5) use high quality spices you can trust, like McCormick single ingredient spices (in this case, cumin)


FYI: 'Qinoa' is pronounced "keen-WAH"

I'll try to get a better pic next time I make it. I ate it all before I thought of it!

Very high in protein, low in carbs

A tasty lime dressing, with cayenne and garlic added for kick, make this salad a bit different from the usual.

This salad is perfect on its own (vegan!), as a side, or a filling/topping for your pita, fish, steak, pork or burgers. You can add/increase ingredients or remove/decrease/substitute some, it really can be made to your taste…
